This is the best 'value for money' lens from Nikon
By Dilip Ranadeon
This is the best 'value for money' lens from Nikon. Excellent colors,, micro contrast and resolution. Personally, I feel the image quality is better than the Nikon 70-200 VR II which comes at a much higher price. Unlike the 70-200mm lens, this one has no focus breathing issues. Focusing is a bit slower than AFS lenses but quite acceptable (much faster with higher-end cameras like D500, d800 series). Will not autofocus with D3000 and D5000 series cameras.The build quality is remarkable.While switching the camera from manual to auto and vice versa do press the release button before turning the ring. Also, do not attempt to turn the focusing ring when in auto mode.This comes with an excellent hard case CL-43A but no lens hoodThis lens has been around for a very long time and there are rumors of it being discontinued soon. This is one of a very few Nikon lenses to be made in Japan. Grab one while you can.
A cheaper and a really good alternative to the newer Nikon 70-200mm lenses - Using with D7000
By Tanmayon
I was a little skeptical about using this lens with the D7000. I have used it for around two days now (around 300 photos). I must say, I am pleasantly surprised. The focus is sufficiently fast and the images are tack sharp when shot at a higher shutter speeds. Amazing bokeh. However, there is visible chromatic aberration. I am more that satisfied with the quality of the glass considering that I got it at almost one third the price of the VR2 version.
Review after 6 months
By Nikon converton
This is a beautiful lens to own if you have a full frame dslr. But if you're used to vibration reduction, this lens is not for you. It's built like a tank with exceptional build quality.I've used it at a classic dance show at night where I was able to get good, sharp images due to its quick autofocus and fast 2.8 aperture. The focus rings are smooth and responsive.If like me, the holy Trinity is way out of your budget then go for it. It hasn't let me down so far.
Cult Classic
By Shyam Udipion
Simply amazing piece of equipment. Tough as nails & built to last with stellar optics. The f/2.8 constant aperture is a boon for low light as well as creamy bokeh. Af is fast & adequate, though not as silent as on Afs lenses. Technologically, the 70-200 2.8 AFS VR 2 lens is superior in all respects, but at more than double the price. So at a price-performance ratio, its a great package, worth every penny.
It's a best deal for Tele lovers
By M Sandeep Anandhon
It's a best deal for Tele lovers... With its 80-200mm zoom range & constant 2.8 aperture gives you amazing pictures. If you have this lens no need to update for 70-200mm 2.8 ED VR zoom
Best lens for pro capture
By Abhishek chatterjeeon
i did not bought this from flipkart.But i thought about putting a review on it. its a old lens, no offence any one in current gen does not care about this one.
This Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8 AF-D (new) is the world's best buy in professional telephoto zooms. It is inexpensive because it's been in Nikon's catalog unchanged since the 1990s. This fully professional lens is a treat at any price. Its superior optical and mechanical quality makes one wonder why amateurs rush to throw even more money at Nikon's latest plastic wonder zooms.
Unlike most of Nikon's lenses today, this jewel is made almost entirely of metal, and is precision made in Japan, not offshored to the lowest bidder. This solid professional lens is built to take a beating, and keep on cranking out brilliant images at ten frames per second for years and years to come. There are no delicate VR or AF-S mechanisms to break 10 or 20 years from now.
This 80-200/2.8D offers fantastic professional performance brand-new for about the same price that some people pay for used lenses, or far junkier products like Sigma.
This 80-200/2.8 was Nikon's absolute top-of-the-line professional tele zoom at its introduction in 1997. It still says "New" on the box because it's an update from the previous 80-200mm f/2.8D (1993-1997).
The even bigger and more expensive 80-200/2.8 AF-S came out in 1999. The 80-200/2.8 AF-S got canned in 2003, replaced by the 70-200/2.8 VR. The 70-200/2.8 VR was then canned and replaced by the 70-200/2.8 VR II in 2009.
As Nikon introduced and then cancelled each of these successively larger, heavier, more expensive and more feature-laden short-timer models, this extraordinary professional 80-200mm f/2.8 lens has never faltered.
This 80-200 is about as sharp as, and focuses 80% as fast as the 70-200/2.8 VR II, which takes the same pictures but costs twice as much.
This 80-200/2.8D is still a very popular lens today, and for good reason. It's the least-expensive fully professional f/2.8 zoom you can buy from anyone today.
